Living in a family where everything and everyone has to be perfect can be exhausting. Poor Quin Henley, she dreams of pursuing her music career but her parents keep pushing her down.

Yes, you do want the best for your children but the successful part in that scenario is having your children with health, with morals, and a goal to achieve. That should be the only thing that our parents should worry of. That we achieve our goals.
